Hello Jack,

Well it’s actually quite simple, you don’t have to modify anything in s2Meber (although I do recommend you turn deactivation safeguards on Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Deactivation Safeguards).

Simply buy a new license, that’s at your name, and in the main website field simply enter your website (i.e. http://www.madhedgefundtrader.com/).

It’s really that easy. When you want to upgrade s2Member pro, simply enter the username and password for that account, and then s2member will use that new account.

Your members won’t notice a thing, but when upgrading s2Member, remember to always update the pro version also, otherwise your site will break, since it doesn’t have s2Member pro when it requires it. To update the pro version automatically, simply go to the general options page of s2Member, and at the top you’ll be asked for login info, make sure it’s the same info as the one for the new account you will buy.

Hope this helps. :)

Hello Rebecca,

I’m afraid not, this is currently not possible with s2Member.

The only way you could do this is to add a hack that fires every time a user pays, and then the hack can check if it’s a user referred by an affiliate or all the checks you want. I’m not sure if this is possible, but I don’t see why not.

You might be interested in checking the s2Member codex for finding the right hook:

If you don’t feel comfortable with PHP, and don’t already have a developer, you can check over at jobs.wordpress.net and see if they can do it.

Hope this helps. :)

Hello Kevin,

I have only seen this error a couple of times, and it results when under WP Dashboard -> Settings -> General -> WordPress Address (URL) the URL is not the same than what your website’s URL is. So for example, one of the times I saw it was when the website URL in that field was “www.ExampleWebsite.com” and the actual URL of the website was “www.examplewebsite.com”.

So you might wanna check that out.

Hope this helps. :)

OK Don,

I notified Jason soon after posting my previous post.

Remember that Jason is only checking his email around once a week or less.

You might be interested in doing this through PHP, you can check this article for that:
Knowledge Base » Changing Roles/Capabilities via PHP

Hope this helps. :)

Hello Hamid,

In that case what you would do is edit the user’s ccaps, not add them through a shortcode (since you can’t separate content by member).

So you would go under WP Dashboard -> Users -> All Users -> [Username] and you would add that ccap to the user under the s2Member section of the user’s info.

Hope this helps. :)

Awesome, thanks Eduan.

No problem. :)

The more problems we solve, the better. ;)

Hello Don,

That’s very strange, Quick Cache doesn’t do that. I would check a couple of things:
First, make sure that you don’t have another caching plugin besides Quick Cache installed.

Second, do a compatibility test, change your theme back to the default theme (TwentyEleven), and also disable all your plugins except Quick Cache (and s2Member if you have it) to test if the problem goes away.

If your website already has visitors, then I suggest you do this in a test environment, simply install WordPress and Quick Cache alone, if the problem doesn’t happen, then it means there is an issue with another plugin/theme you have installed.

Hope this helps. :)

So you want to know the function that updates the user’s EOT? Or the hook for when that happens?

In any case, you can search the codex for that:
http://www.s2member.com/codex/stable/overview-summary/

Hope this helps. :)

You can find them under wp-content/plugins/s2member-logs if I remember right. :)

No joke I agree. I tried to make my site with all custom code using the MVC style, tried zend frame work, yii, etc. And in the end I finaly got on track when I really noticed the power behind wordpress! 80% of anything you want is allready done as a plugin. And what’s not done for you is as simple as hooks and actions in a custom plugin! I wish I could go back in time and redo a lot of my past projects.

I agree, although WordPress is not really the best of its kind, I mean it is for blogging, but any good coder with certain standards will see that the code is not what you would call “clean”, it can do a lot better in the coding department.

Anyway, its nice to meet and talk to you man, I may make this my #1 forum and stick around to help other people. I have not purchused s2member yet but will even if its just to support the dev.

Yes, I actually did this, and it feels good to help other people. :) You will probably see more from me than other members, but not more than the support reps. :)

Pleasure talking to you too. :)

Hello SS,

Would specific post/page access work for you? Check out this video: Video » s2Member (Specific Posts/Pages)

Also check under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Restriction Options -› Specific Post/Page Access Restrictions.

Hope this helps. :)
